<p>does anyone know anythign about the pogue scholarship? like how many people usually apply each year and the # of finalists they select? does the essay question change every year?</p>
<p>and if anyone has received it, can you post your stats and what you think helped you stand out? thanks!</p>
<p>i am an oos winner of the pogue. 200 apps, 15 oos finalists, about 5 winners and 2 alternates. check the pogue website for the app. they look for a complete person, not for a bunch of numbers. write essays that express who you are and what impact you make in your community.</p>
